Stationery So Cute You'll Want To Write Someone A Letter

So you'd better find yourself a pen pal, stat.

Yeah yeah, so we all know it's the digital age and if you can't do something on your phone, it basically doesn't exist.

But let's get hipster and imagine a simpler time pre-emails, texts and yes, even pre-fax, when sending a letter was the preferred method of long-distance communication. Sure, it might take ages to get from Point A to Point B, but there's something kind of romantic in the sentiment, right?

Even though these days the art of letter writing might be dying out (or is it coming back?), there is actually some truly great stationery out there for those who are thinking of picking up a pen and kicking it old-school.

Based in Melbourne, 'Ask Alice' is the brainchild of designer Sass Cocker and has a strong emphasis towards ethical and sustainable concerns -- so you know your letters will be sourced from local, recycled and fair-trade materials.

Cheap and cheerful as this may be, we'd recommend ordering this baby online, because as any stationery tragic knows, it's impossible to venture into a Typo store without taking home every second thing you see.
